Fascism and Democracy Orwell George (2020)

On the 70th anniversary of George Orwells death, this collection brings together five brilliant essays written during the darkest days of the Second World War. Orwell examines the principles of democracy and the possibility of reform, the meaning of literature and free speech in times of violence, and the sustainability of objective truth. Together, the essays offer a compelling portrait of a nation where norms and ideals can no longer be taken for granted, while also serving as timeless reminders of the fragility of freedom.
